I was the only one last year as far as the forum went and also from walking through the campsites, though I must admit that haydn callow was there though he wasnt in his bongo - i believe it was having some tender loving care at the time

I'm at the whittlebury campsite on Copse - same as last year

You have to ask yourself, do I want a weekend at the F1 GP? or a second Bongo just for Sundays? - the cost is about the same. :lol:

All you need is a freeview box to plug into the projector.

Ohh and some huge speakers for the noise - sorry that should read "ambiance"

As I said, for that money I'd want a second Bongo.

I'd also want somewhere other than Silverstone - somewhere you can actually see the racing, not catch fencing.

No, if you give me a call while it's on I'll tell you what's happening from what I can see on TV.
I'll have a better view than you wherever you are on the circuit.
